In my recent article about the proposed changes to MOT schedules, you may have noticed that we had a number of concerns. So it was to our happiness that we found out about the ProMOTe campaign to retain the frequency of Britain’s MOT testing. Naturally we have signed their petition, followed their Tweets and look forward to seeing more positive news in the press as the campaign gathers pace and support.

We’d all rather keep the £50 a year extra it’s likely to cost us if annual MOTs are scrapped, let alone the peace of mind that untested jalopies aren’t careering about our roads.

So visit the Pro-MOTe campaign website yourselves if you would like to join the petition: http://www.pro-mote.org.uk/

Free MOT for one lucky customer that ‘likes’ our Facebook page

After posting my last blog post, I thought wouldn’t it be great if we could give something back to the lovely people that come on to our Facebook page and leave some feedback on our service, our advert and just what we are trying to do in general. So I spoke to John Fox and he said let’s give them a free MOT when they need one. Thanks John!

So get liking and posting and fingers crossed it’s you that gets picked out. Always nice to save a few quid.

We also have some more juicy offers to put to you soon, so keep an eye out on Facebook and on our blog.

Well it’s all happening here at TyreQuote.com

For those of you that have visited before, you will notice that we have freshened up our look a little bit. New logo, new style and new beginnings. We are delighted to welcome Will Bellamy on board as our new Sales Manager reporting in to John Fox (previously of Audi and VW). John and Will are making a brilliant job of expanding and managing our network fitters, so when you request replacement car/bike or van tyres, we have the very best people in your area on hand to quote.

Although we are excited to have Will making progress on our network and he is a thoroughly nice chap, it’s our radio advertising campaign that we are most excited about this month. John’s sharp business sense and marketing experience led us to developing a great radio jingle of which we’re extremely proud and it has finally hit the airwaves of Capital FM today. Listen out for our 10 and 30 second adverts and let us know what you think – we love to hear from our customers – Email james@tyrequote.com or find us on Facebook, just search for ‘TyreQuote.com’.

After Will and the radio ad, we have also made some awesome updates on the website itself. Our new tyre search facility uses the latest javascript technology to provide live filtering which means you can get to the bottom of our massive database of tyres in no time and find the very best tyres for your needs in seconds.

Finally from me bigging-up all the brilliant things we do here, is our new innovation on MOTs. We have listened hard to your needs and it seems that many of you are changing your tyres in readiness for an MOT. As we are already successfully matching you with the best tyre fitters in your area, we are also going to be providing offers from your local MOT station – if you want them of course. All you will need to do is tell us when your MOT is due and we’ll email you discount vouchers when the time is right to book in. Another free money saving opportunity from TyreQuote.com.

Thanks for reading as always,

James
